Talking to kids about differences like race, gender, ability, and neurodiversity can feel uncomfortable. But silence speaks too, and often louder than we realize. Noticing differences isn’t rude; it’s real. And pretending we don’t see them can unintentionally erase someone’s lived experience. Instead of saying “I don’t see color” or “I don’t see disability,” we can help our children become curious and kind. Try asking: What differences have you noticed? How do those differences shape someone’s life? How do you want to be seen? The goal is not to ignore what makes us unique. It is to see each other fully, listen deeply, and understand more, even when it feels a little uncomfortable. That’s where empathy and real connection begin. #ParentingWithPurpose #TalkingAboutDifferences #InclusionStartsAtHome #HowToTalkToKids #RaisingKindKids #SeeingTheWholePerson #DrRobynSilverman
